Introducing...

We are very proud to be able to introduce the newest member of our family,


Tallulah

(LuLu for short) Today we drove over to the Humaine Society where this sweet girl was waiting patiently for a family to take her home. Tallulah is a two year old St. Bernard/Collie mix. She is calm, quiet and completely unfazed by the excited bouncing and over-enthusiastic petting from both Michaela and Nathanael. She is now officially ours! She has looked at the cats with curiosity, but has made no move to enter their personal space. Lulu seems to be the perfect fit for our family and we already love her very much. After twelve years of waiting, it still seems a little surreal to have a dog, but we're very, very happy!

This is SO exciting!!! Dear Tallulah! Welcome to the family! You are so beautiful, and we can't wait to meet you! Cara and Jonathan, we are so thankful that finally, after all these years, you have received one more of your heart's desires. And Michaela and Nathanael, we are so thankful that you now have your very own dog to grow up with!!! We love you all, and are so happy for you! Tallulah is such a lucky girl to have landed in your laps!

Hey LuLu,

What a beautiful name. Welcome to the family. Meow, meow, meow. Nice dog costume, by the way. You have everybody fooled! Meow, meow, purrrrrrr.

Lots of love,
Auntie LuLu

Thanks Auntie Lori!!!

I hadn't made the connection until you commented! LuLu is a beautiful name!

She's so calm, if it weren't for her size, I'd say she really was a cat in disguise. She's got the whole lounging thing down pat!

Love the coloring. I can't believe it's been so long for you without a doggy companion. Is the honeymoon over yet? :)

I'm so happy that you guys finally have a dog! They become another member of the family!! And Tallulah is just as beautiful as her name suggests! Can't wait to meet her! Maybe Cassie and Tallulah will become best friends!
Love,
